<p>Where is the best place to see if there is any interest in implementing some ideas to the language:</p>
<p>cpu flags:<br>
Access the carry bit, zero bit, etc both for rotates, operations that overflow, etc.</p>
<p>expanding i#arch u#arch, (i8arch) type:<br>
Add "expandable" types, for example ints (and floats?).  Expands to the uarch, iarch size as long as it's at least specified size...  (programmer can specify/test min size)</p>
<p>Smart inlining:<br>
Add the ability to guide inlining...  inline only in loops,   inline only in marked "performance" sections of code</p>
<p>Thanks</p>

<p><a href="https://internals.rust-lang.org/">https://internals.rust-lang.org/</a> would be one option.  A topic in non-MCP t-lang would probably be fine too.</p>
